Connecting the Data Cables
Connecting the AR450S to your network:
1.
Connect to the LAN and DMZ.
If you have not already done so, use a straight-through Ethernet patch
cable to connect the device(s) on your private network (LAN) to the
router’s switch port(s). Two straight-through Ethernet patch cables are
supplied with the router. By default, all five switch ports are members of
VLAN1.
If you have a public server, use a straight-through Ethernet patch cable to
connect it to the router’s Ethernet DMZ (ETH1) port. Separating public
servers from your LAN allows the firewall to provide greater protection for
your LAN. If you have multiple public servers, you can connect them to a
hub or Layer 2 switch and connect that device to the router’s DMZ port.
